Blood Orange Chocolate Pudding

This dairy-free blood orange chocolate pudding is a delicious no-bake dessert. Made with creamy coconut milk, chocolate chips and vibrant blood orange juice and zest, it’s a decadent dessert that takes minutes to make.

Serve it at your next holiday table or dinner party with a spoonful of whipped cream, flakey salt and fresh orange slices.

Blood Orange Chocolate Pudding

This creamy pudding was inspired by my Vegan Chocolate Tart I shared a few years ago. It’s made with canned coconut milk, melted chocolate chips, vanilla extract, maple syrup and blood orange juice + zest.

It takes less than 10 minutes to whip up, and only a few hours to chill in the fridge. I’ve been eating it by the spoonful every time that sweet craving hits.

Blood Orange Chocolate Pudding

What you’ll need to make blood orange chocolate pudding

  • Canned coconut milk– full-fat coconut milk works best for this recipe
  • Chocolate chips– use your favorite non-dairy chocolate to keep this recipe vegan
  • Maple syrup
  • Vanilla extract
  • Blood orange zest + juice
  1. Melt the chocolate chips with the coconut milk in the microwave for 30 second increments. Once hot, whisk together until smooth
  2. Add in the maple syrup, orange zest, orange juice and vanilla and whisk well, until well incorporated
  3. Refrigerate the mix for at least 4-5 hours. The pudding should be thick and creamy when ready

How to serve your chocolate pudding

I love serving this dessert with a spoonful of whipped cream, flakey salt, and fresh orange slices. It can be made days in advance and served throughout the week with fresh fruit.

To serve, I spoon the pudding into small small glass tumblers or ramekins to make individual servings. It’s the perfect treat that everyone will enjoy!

Grilled honey mustard chicken sandwich Simple sa Grilled honey mustard chicken sandwich 

Simple sandwiches are a go-to of mine during busy weeks, and this grilled honey mustard chicken sandwich is the perfect way to pack in carbs, fiber and protein for a nourishing lunch. 

I used @kensdressing creamy Honey Mustard Dressing for the marinade, which is sweet, tangy, and incredibly versatile— it’s a pantry staple and a delicious way to elevate your proteins as we transition into fall!

Recipe:
Sesame baguette or bread of choice 
2 chicken breast
¼ cup Ken’s Honey Mustard dressing
1 red bell pepper, sliced 
1 zucchini, cut into coins 
Mixed greens
Olive oil
Salt & pepper

1. Add the sliced bell pepper and zucchini to a sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt. Set the vegetables under the broiler until they’re charred, for about 5-6 minutes- keeping a close eye
2. Heat a grill pan with 2 tbsp of olive oil on medium heat 
3. Marinate the chicken breast with the honey mustard dressing, a drizzle of olive oil and salt & pepper. Toss to combine
4. Grill the chicken for about 15 minutes total, flipping every couple of minutes until fully cooked through to 165 F 
5. Assemble your sandwich by toasting your bread and adding the mixed greens, grilled chicken, extra honey mustard dressing and the roasted vegetables
